I was very pleased with the services and the attention given to the issue. I would truly refer this firm to others.

This was the first time I contacted an attorney for a credit card issue. I was very pleased with the amount of time taken to complete this issue.

Best decision I could have made...

Mr. Thornhill was very straight forward, and informative throughout every step in the legal process. He is a very down to earth person, and his fees were some what reasonable considering the circumstances. Mr. Thornhill was able to get my 50k Student Loan debt dismissed, and I am really glad I chose ...him to represent my mom and I.

Great at his job

I had a debt that had been haunting me for years. I had tried unsuccessfully to take care of the debt myself several times. Each time I was told they were unwilling to work with me unless I had the full payment. It eventually turned in to a judgement and the fees and interest began to accumulate. Ent...er Chris Thornhill and Mastriani Law Firm. Chris was very welcoming on our first meeting and made me feel comfortable. Chris was not only able to get the plaintiff to work with me, but he was able to settle for ~%30. This was done in less than a week. I am extremely pleased with the service I received and would definitely use Chris again if I ever need to.

Debt settlement lawyer | Jun 13

Relationship: Supervised lawyer

"I endorse this lawyer. Christopher Thornhill has all that it takes to be an outstanding lawyer. He has the intelligence and the discipline to excel at any task. When this is coupled with the values he has learned from his family you have everything that the term lawyer should personify. Chris is compassionate for others. He deeply cares about his work product. It is a rare combination when one has all the mental tools, the physical skills to work hard and a strong moral fiber such as Chris has. He works hard. Stays late often times devoting extra hours to a matter, without expecting payment from the client, to get it right. He has empathy for the clients and puts himself in their shoes. Although well educated and articulate he also has the ability to explain the law in layman's terms to ensure that the client understands. As a father with two adorable infant daughters. Chrs, as takes great pride in them and his sense of responsibility is exemplified with his demeanor of integrity"

"I have known Chris for several years. Chris is one of the most intelligent and articulate individuals you will ever have the pleasure of meeting. Chris exudes the type of class and professionalism every lawyer should strive to equal. Every time I have had the opportunity to watch Chris in the courtroom, he has been incredibly successful as he speaks from a position of knowledge and confidence. I have recommended Chris to several friends and family members when they encountered a debt issue. All have returned speaking nothing but praise for the work he has done. I would feel incredibly safe entrusting my legal matters to Chris as I know him to be an exceptional lawyer."
